Lord churchin scores a Point.

LONDON, Oct. 24-Lord Randolph Churchill
spoke at Stockton this evening. He said that
the Nationalist leaders had made tool of his
friend Blunt who was impulsive man, and
knew nothing whatever about Irish affairs. He
advised his hearers not to attach too much i'm
portance to such collisions, of which more might
occur, the object being to make the government
of Ireland impossible and to ALLEVIATE electoral
support from the Unionist party. Looking at
the determination and promptitude with which
the government was now acting, he believed
that the league and all the forces Of disorder in
Parliament resumed work. Some sentimental
people were shocked by these collisions with the
police but in America the people were not SO
soueamish, knowing that it was impossible to
trfe with lawlessuess in q country with large
democratic institutions; for instance, had
MIR. Blaine spoken about the American police as
at Kidderminster, he would probably have been
expelled from public life. The legislatures of
New York and other American States were
fond of passing resolutions expressing sympathy
with disturbers OF order in Ireland, but when
similar occurred at home, the police
speedily used clubs. and the military rifles.

speech of Lord Randolph Churchill offers to
prove the following assertions: That before the
private that he favored home rule: that he
corrected with his own hand the Tory candl

and that when the Tories were defeated in the
election. he expressed regret to a home rule
member that the policy Of home rule had failed.
